APM: Monthly Meeting Reale again?

[Will Braswell]

Thanks Tom,
We'll volunteer you for the hardest YAPC tasks, and we'll be sure to
pelt you with pizza crusts at next month's meeting.  ;)

the 
boss to say "Yeah, okay, that's what we should do" and ask "So how 
long will it take for you to do it?"  And in relief that he finally 
"gets it" you blurt out "oh, two weeks".

And then you realize the implications of "boss time" and that it's 
late Wednesday... The boss is thinking there's the *whole* *rest* of 
this week, and then a *new* week next week, and so you really mean 
sometime around the Wednesday/Thursday following.  Two weeks really 
means one week in boss time.

And you were hoping for two weeks, including two weekends.

And then spousal time cuts in, and you find out one of those 
weekends, the first one, last weekend, was really "tile laying time" 
or "new curtain rods time".

Sorry to say I'll miss the meeting and Reini's talk.  (I had wanted 
to mutter 'LLVM' at an appropriate moment and get pelted with pizza
crusts.)

Regarding the YAPC planning, sign me up for anything that doesn't 
require intelligence or preparedness.  :-)

Tom
